#RiesgoDeCustodia : The Fundamental Truth of Asset Control
The underlying truth of the cryptocurrency ecosystem is financial sovereignty. The maxim "Not Your Keys, Not Your Coin" is not an option; it is a fundamental security axiom that every operator must understand before any operation.
1. The Inescapable Risk of Custody (CEFI)
Tactical Definition: By holding $BTC or USDT on any centralized exchange (CEFI), the user delegates control of the private key. You hold a digital IOU (promise to pay), not the underlying asset.
Operational Risk: This scheme exposes capital to counterparty risk. If the platform fails, is compromised, or faces regulatory restrictions, access to funds may be revoked or frozen.
Immutability: Private keys are the only verifiable proof of ownership on a blockchain. Self-custody (Hardware Wallet/Cold Storage) eliminates this counterparty risk.
2. Fundamental Truth: Inoperability Without Control
The purpose of not operating with delegated capital is to recognize vulnerability. Maximum liquidity for trading requires the Spot wallet; however, long-term storage (hodling) demands migrating the asset out of centralized control. Inoperability guarantees immutable ownership. #SeguridadCripto #SoberaníaFinanciera
ETCB NOTICE: Understanding the private key and custody risk is more important than any price analysis or return. Losing control of keys is as critical as losing capital due to poor trading.
